Given the success of the 3 day invasion I'm sure NATO is terrified.

He says in defence of the country which formerly proclaimed to have the second best army in the world, but also

struggles to complete its three day adventure in Ukraine for more than two years now,
has to hide its navy,
lost most of its active aviation, tanks and APCs, and
(my personal favourite) has to resort sending troops into battle in Chinese golf carts as transport options seem to run.

But the West is a laughing stock.

Dang. Can I get some of the shit you are on?

has to hide its navy

From an enemy without any naval forces

Technically the drones are a naval force. Just a very cheap and surprisingly effective one.

Russia's naval force has been a bit of paper tiger for a while now. Some of their warships practically run on coal.
